2.2.2. Explain how modes of delivery of courses help in the attainment of the POs (10)
(Describe the different course delivery methods/modes, e . g . lectures interspersed
with discussion, asynchronous mode of interaction, group discussion, and project etc., used to
deliver the courses and justify the effectiveness of these methods for the attainment of the
POs. This may be further justified using the indirect assessment methods such as course-end
surveys.)
The courses are delivered as
 Lectures :
Classroom lectures form the most basic and conventional way of disseminating information
to students. Lectures are used to convey the theoretical aspects. In these lectures students
are encouraged to think originally and are made to identify and analyze engineering
problems. Lectures are done with the aid of black board and chalk and presentations so that
the students get a clear picture of the ideas imparted to them.
 Presentations:
Ideas and concepts taught during lectures are reinforced in the minds of students with the
aid of presentations, both videos as well as pictures. Videos help in making students
understand the working of complex engineering processes which would otherwise have
been impossible to demonstrate on a two- dimensional black board.
 Tutorials:
Tutorials help the students in analyzing and solving engineering problems on the basis of
theory dealt with during lectures. The tutorial sessions make the concept taught during
lectures clearer to students.
 Assignments
Assignments make students self- reliant in solving problems through an understanding of
theory through practice
Laboratory Experiments
Exposes the students to experimental and practical aspects of theory studied in classrooms.
They help students in verifying the theories learned by experiments through interpretation
of results. Since laboratory experiments are usually done in teams, they help develop the
spirit of working together as a team in the minds of young students
 Community service programme
Students of the department are encouraged to become responsible citizens of the country by
encouraging them take part in community service programs. Community service initiatives
help them to understand real life problems faced by different strata of society and
encourage them to come up with novel and sustainable solutions for these problems
Industrial visits
Industrial visits give the students a first-hand understanding of how large-scale industries
work. Industrial visit is mandatory for all students of the department at least once in a year.

Amal Jyothi College of Engineering 87


NBA- SAR Department of Civil Engineering

Industrial training
Students are encouraged to undergo industrial training during their semester break in any
industry of their choice. Also a report has to be submitted at the end of industrial training.
Industrial training provides an insight to students about what is happening in real world and
also supplements their class room knowledge.
 Soft ware training programmes
The advent of various softwares has made life of an engineer easy. So it is essential that
students are taught the nuances of various softwares which would help them in giving
better shape to their ideas as also give them an added advantage in their career prospects.
With this in mind the department has taken a lead in teaching students softwares like C,
AUTO CAD, STAAD, PRIMAVERA, REVIT etc. In addition to that training to
computerized survey using TOTAL STATION is also given which will help them to be
competitive in construction industry
 Seminars and workshops
Students are made to present a seminar during their final year. In this seminar students are
supposed to make a seminar presentation in an area of their choice by referring to various
journals of national and international repute.
 Participation in paper presentations and technical competitions at the national and
international level
Students are encouraged to participate in paper presentation contests and technical
competitions at state and national levels.
 Projects ( in three levels):
Students have to carry out a project at micro level (second year) where they chose their
area of interest. Micro project mainly aims at familiarizing students with literature review
and introduction to apply their class room knowledge to research. Mini level projects
(Third year project) aims at exposing students to real world scenarios of the theory they
have studied in class in their area of interest. Main level (Final year) project aims at
training them to find solutions to real world problems with their technical knowhow. The
development of students from micro to mini to main project has been found to be very
effective in their growth as engineers.
 E- Learning: online Courses
Students are encouraged to use online materials of their courses and also to attend
additional online courses to gain knowledge and experience beyond their curriculum
2.2.3. Indicate the extent to which the laboratory and project course work are
contributing towards the attainment of the POs (20)
(Justify the balance between theory and practical for the attainment of POs. Justify how the
various project works (a sample of 20% best and average projects from total projects) carried
as part of the programme curriculum contribute towards the attainment of the POs.)

Amal Jyothi College of Engineering 88

 The programme aims at providing an all round exposure to civil engineering for
students including practical solutions and finding solution to real world engineering
problems.
 The curriculum of the programme are so framed that ample number of laboratory
courses are included so that practical knowhow of students is improvised along with
theoretical knowledge. The laboratory works are also conducted in groups which
ensure development of team working skills of students. All core subjects are supported
with laboratory courses to supplement knowledge of students in that particular area.
 The project course work allows the students to choose a specific area of interest and
thereafter have a better understanding in that area, and find solution to a real world
problem in that areas utilizing the technical know how they gained in class room.
Project course work makes students capable of working with deadlines and improve
their presentation and communication skills. Project work is spread over a period of
two semesters. Students select an area of their choice and do extensive literature
survey, then formulate a problem and come up with some novel, sustainable and
original idea as a solution to that problem. Regular reviewing is done and students are
assigned guides to help them in their research.
The following charts show the quantitative description of the credit distribution
among theory, practical and project course works.

2.2.4. Indicate how assessment tools used to assess the impact of delivery of course/course
content contribute towards the attainment of course outcomes/ programme outcomes
(10)

Direct Assessment Tools


 Assignments: The assignment is a qualitative performance assessment tool designed to
assess student’s knowledge of engineering practices, framework and problem solving
 Tutorial Sessions: Tutorial sessions for students provide a clear assessment of the delivery
of the course contents.
 Series Exams ( Conducted at Institutional Level): Series exams conducted twice a semester
helps in the continuous evaluation of students performance
 Small Research Projects: Small Research Projects are given to students and evaluated
keeping them updated with latest technical know how
 University Examination (Conducted at University Level): The examination further ensure
that the students attain the Course outcomes, thereby the Programme outcomes.
Additionally the examination ensures that only those students who have attained the
Programme outcomes are actually awarded the Programme certificates

 Viva-Voce at the End of Programme : A viva-voce is conducted as a part of assessing


students knowledge in the subjects

Amal Jyothi College of Engineering 167


NBA- SAR Department of Civil Engineering

(Instruction: The institution may report the details of the mentoring system that has
been developed for the students for various purposes and also state the efficacy of such
system here

Mentoring is provided for total development of the students. Mentoring is provided after
analyzing the problems, if any, faced by each student. Mentoring helps students to get over
their difficulties with their studies (course work as well as laboratories). All students are
periodically counselled by three full-time counsellors. Career guidance is also given to the
students.
Number of Faculty mentors: 152
Number of students per mentor: 20 or less
Frequency of meeting: Minimum twice in a Semester

Each student has to fill up and maintain a Student diary with details of
parents/guardian, addresses, contact numbers and an academic history of student
marks in all public examinations and class tests in the Engineering courses. Any
personal difficulties of the student will also be discussed and the student will be
directed to professional counselors, if required. The parents shall always be
informed regarding the progress as well as problems, if any, of the students.
Mentor shall also keep a track of the academic journal prepared by the student
detailing what he/she has learnt in every period. Students’ participation in arts and
sports items and his personality and character will also be graded by the mentor
which can be viewed by the HOD and Principal. Corrective advice is given, if
necessary.

Three full time counselors are available in the college. The students are at liberty
to approach any of them for help and guidance.

It is found that the mentoring system in the College is very effective for the
development of the students.

7.2.3. Feedback analysis and reward/corrective measures taken, if any (5)

Specify the feedback collection process: The students of each class are guided to the
Central Computing Facility as per a pre- planned schedule. The students are given 14
questions concerning the faculty who are dealing with theory papers and 9 questions for
faculty and staff dealing with Laboratories or workshops. The questionnaire is designed
to enable them to give their opinion as Excellent, Very Good, Satisfactory or Poor.
Using a computer program the score of each faculty is computed and shall be forwarded
to the Principal. The students are also allowed to write whatever comments they want to

Amal Jyothi College of Engineering 168


NBA- SAR Department of Civil Engineering

make about the teachers which will be finally checked by Principal and HOD and
forwarded to the faculty concerned.
Percentage of students who participated: More than 90 percent.

Specify the feedback analysis process: The feedback collected from students are first
analyzed at the level of HOD and then at the level of faculty appraisal committee,
headed by the Principal. The contents of the feedback will be shared with each faculty
member individually. The feedback system works as an eye opener for the faculty.

Basis of reward/corrective measures, if any: Best faculty award is given based on


students feedback, HOD’s evaluation, the faculty’s self-appraisal report and the
marks given by Faculty appraisal committee, headed by Principal. The
increments and promotions are also bear some effect on these scores. Those with
very poor marks and with bad comments from many students will be asked to
show- cause why they should be allowed to continue in this College.

Number of corrective actions taken in the last three years: 3 faculty members was
warned during last three years. The warning led to improvements in their
performance and quality of teaching.

7.2.4 Scope for self-learning (5)

(Instruction: The institution needs to specify the scope for self-learning /learning beyond
syllabus and creation of facilities for self-learning/learning beyond syllabus.)

In tune with AJCE’s vision of being a transformational leader in education, conscious


efforts are taken in the academic and allied activities of the college to nurture critical
thinking, self-learning, creativity and scientific temper among students.

The college believes that self-learning and learning beyond syllabus have a great scope in
the development of the career of an engineer. Everything in engineering cannot be taught in
the class room or laboratories. The explosion in knowledge related to applied science and
engineering during the last century has been so much that four years is too short a period
even to cover one branch of engineering. This fact calls for the relevance for self-learning
for young engineers. What an institution should do is to provide adequate facilities for self-
learning to students so that they get motivated to learn more and more and ultimately
become life-long learners and innovators.

Motivation for self-learning should be provided in the classrooms. A teacher has a great
role to play in this. Discussing subject beyond the syllabus, providing exposure to exciting
developments in science and technology around the globe, attempting solutions to
problems in daily life etc. are the ways to motivate students for self-learning. They should
also be motivated to do things themselves so that they gain confidence to try anything with
their own hands. An intuition should provide ample opportunities and facilities for these to
students. Amal Jyothi College of Engineering has been doing just this, as outlined below.

Amal Jyothi College of Engineering 169


NBA- SAR Department of Civil Engineering

7.2.5. Generation of self-learning facilities, and availability of materials for learning


beyond syllabus (5)
(Instruction: The institution needs to specify the facilities for self-learning/learning
beyond syllabus.)

Amal Jyothi College of Engineering (AJCE) has provided the following facilities to
students for their self-learning and learning beyond syllabus

 Infrastructure

1. 24/7 internet access with Wi-Fi connectivity


2. Smart classrooms with audiovisual aids
3. AES Software, Language lab, Computer Labs etc.

 Learning resources:

1. Committed faculty who motivate students in the process of their learning


2. Reputed Journals from IEEE, ACM, Springer, Wiley etc.
3. Online Databases and Digital Video
4. Licensed Soft wares

The institution supports teachers to make learning efficient. The college provides a central
library with all latest books and journals which the faculty can utilize effectively and
provide comprehensive latest information to students. Students are encouraged to use the
library independently to enhance their skills and knowledge. Apart from this college
provides seminar halls where the students can participate in group discussions, debates,
seminars etc. The institution and faculty members support and encourage every student to
make use of Internet, computers and latest technologies available to upgrade themselves in
their respective field of studies.

 Student projects

Every student in AJCE does three projects during their course. Each student is assigned a
Micro project during third semester, a Mini project during fifth semester and a Main
project during seventh and eighth semesters. The students have the freedom to select
projects of their choice in consultation with teachers. Execution of these projects by
themselves goes a long way in developing independent thinking, organizing various
elements of work in the project and finding solutions to problems they face. These projects
inculcate creativity and innovative mind among students. AJCE thinks that execution of
these projects will help to transform students in to life-long learners and innovators.

upholds the need for self-less service. NSS helps the students develop appreciation to other
person’s points of view and also show consideration to ‘other living beings. The
philosophy of the NSS is well reflected in this motto, which underlines on the belief that
the welfare of an individual is ultimately dependent on the welfare of the society on the
whole and therefore, the NSS volunteers shall strive for the well-being of the society.

M.G University has sanctioned one unit of NSS to our college. This is the first time that an
NSS unit has been sanctioned by the MG University to a self-financing engineering
college. The NSS unit of our college, with 200 volunteers, plays an active role in shaping

and/or meeting the PO s.
Various new facilities which has been hitherto unavailable to the students have been created
for strengthening the curriculum and/or meeting the P.O’s. The important ones have been
listed below
 Industrial visits

Industrial visits give the students a firsthand understanding of how big industries work.
Industrial visit is mandatory for all students of the department at least once in a year.
They are exposed to the real work involved in big infrastructural projects. Also students
are able to reinforce the knowledge which they have gained through classroom lectures

 Industrial training

Students are encouraged to undergo industrial training during their semester break in
some industry of their choice. Also a report has to be submitted at the end of industrial
training. Industrial training provides an insight to students about what is happening in
the real world and also supplements their class room knowledge. Industrial training also
helps students to get practice in works in industry which will be of immense help to
them later when they join for jobs in industry after their course completion

 Soft ware training programmes


The advent of various softwares has made life of an engineer easy. So it is essential that
students are taught the nuances of various softwares which would help them in giving
better shape to their ideas as also give them an added advantage in their career prospects.
With this in mind the department has taken a lead in teaching students softwares like C,
AUTO CAD, STAAD, PRIMAVERA, REVIT etc. In addition to above mentioned
courses, training in computerized survey using TOTAL STATION is also given

 Workshops

Different workshops related to the curriculum taught are arranged throughout academic
year to enhance students’ knowledge in engineering subjects. Eminent personalities

 Participation in paper presentations and technical competitions at the national and


international level

Students are encouraged to participate in paper presentations and technical competitions


at the national and international levels.

 Projects ( in three levels):

Students have to carry out a project at micro level (second year) where they chose their
area of interest. Micro project mainly aims at familiarizing students with nuances of
literature review and an exposure on how to apply their class room knowledge to
research. Mini level projects (third year project) aims at exposing students to real world
scenarios of the theory they have studied in class in their area of interest. Main level
(final year) project aims at training them to find solutions to real world problems with
their technical knowhow. The partaking of students in micro, mini and main project
have been found to be very effective in their growth as engineers.

 e Learning: online Courses

Students are encouraged to use the vast repertoire of materials available online in the
relevant areas. Students are actively instructed and encouraged to refer courses of their
interest in NPTEL, MOOC’s etc

 Aptitude training

Aptitude Training is given to students during their 3rd and 4th year in order to make them
capable of attending all the competitive exams, interviews conducted by industries etc.

examination and not less than 50% of the total marks of the subject i.e. university
examination marks and sessional marks in that subject put togather.

A candidate shall be declared to have passed in a semester examination in full in first


appearance (first registration is considered as first appearance) if he satisfies the above
criteria for each theory and practical subject.

Candidates will be assigned grades according to the marks scored.

For Seminar, Project, and Viva Voce (in 8th semester), the minimum for a pass
shall be 50% of the total marks assigned to the respective examination.
If a candidate has passed all examinations of B.Tech. course (at the time of
publication of results of eighth semester) except Viva-Voce in the eighth semester, a re-
examination for the Viva-Voce should be conducted within one month after the
publication of results. Each candidate should apply for this ‘Save a Semester
examination’ within one week after the publication of eighth semester results.

10. Credit System

Each subject shall have a certain number of credits assigned to it depending upon
the academic load and the nature and importance of the subject. The credit associated
with each subject will be shown in the prescribed scheme and syllabi. Each course shall
have an integer number of credits, which reflects its weightage.

11. Grading

The university shall award the letter grade to students based on the marks secured
by them in both internal assessment and Semester-End examinations taken together in the
subjects registered. Each letter grade indicates a qualitative assessment of the student’s
performance and is associated with a specified number of grade points. The grading
system along with the grade points for each grade, applicable to passed candidates is
shown below. All passed candidate will be allotted a grade S, A, B, C, D, or E according
to the total marks scored by him/her.
If a candidate does not pass a subject as per the conditions given in Section (9),
he/she will be assigned an Unsatisfactory grade ‘U’ irrespective of his/her total marks. If
a student does not pass a subject in two attempts, the maximum grade he/she can get is
‘C’ when he/she passes the subject in any subsequent examination, whatever be the
marks scored by him/her.
A student is considered to have completed a subject successfully and earned the
credits if he/she secures a letter grade other than ‘U’ in that course. Letter grade ‘U’ has
zero grade point and the candidate has to write the examination again to improve the
grade. A student's performance is measured by the number of credits that he/she has
earned and by the cumulative grade point average (CGPA) maintained by him/her.

Point Average (CGPA)

(a) A Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) shall be computed for all the students for
each semester, as follows:
n
∑ Ci G i
SGPA = i =1n
∑C i
i=1

where, n is the number of subjects registered during the semester, Ci is the


number of credits allotted to ith subject as per the scheme, and Gi is the grade
points corresponding to the grade awarded to the student for the subject.

(b) A Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) shall be computed for all the
students at the end of each semester by taking into consideration their performance in
the present and the past semesters as follows:

m
∑C i G i
CGPA = i=1m
∑C i
i=1

where, m is the number of courses registered up to that semester, Ci is the


number of credits allotted to ith subject as per the scheme, and Gi is the grade
points corresponding to the grade awarded to the student for the subject.

An up-to-date assessment of overall performance of a student is obtained by


calculating CGPA. CGPA is weighted average of the grade points obtained in all the
subjects registered by the students since he entered the B.Tech. course.
NBA- SAR Department of Civil Engineering

(c) Both the SGPA and CGPA shall be rounded off to the second place of decimal and
recorded as such for ease of presentation. Whenever the CGPAs are to be used for
